How to open Android apps on Windows xp/vista/7/8 or Mac ? BlueStacks Demo
Back in October, BlueStacks released the first public version of its software that allowed many of the apps available for Android devices to run on a Windows PC. Today, BlueStacks has released a new public beta version of the software. The company's website is apparently getting hit with lots of traffic at the time of this news post so it may take a while to load.
According to today's press release, the new version adds some extra features that were not available in the first editions of the software. This is due to BlueStacks' own Layercake technology. The company says that Layercake allows the software to run applications that were designed for ARM-based processors to operate on x86 Windows PCs. It also allows Android apps to be run that have support for hardware accelerated graphics.
The public alpha version of BlueStacks was downloaded by over a million people in a three-month time period in 2011. BlueStacks says over 4.5 million Android apps were opened using its software on PCs during that time. The new beta version has also been localized for ten different countries

Back in May, the start up company BlueStacks announced plans to launch a way to run applications made for Google's Android OS on PCs running Microsoft's Windows operating system. Today, BlueStacks has finally released the first alpha version of its Android App Player. It's available as a free download at its web site. It looks like this first version is for Windows 7 and Vista-based PCs only at this point.
If you own an Android-based smartphone or tablet you can use the BlueStacks Android App Player to transfer those apps to a Windows PC and play them on the Android App Player. This requires that the user download BlueStacks' Cloud Connect app from the Android Market. If you don't own an Android device you can still download new apps on your PC via the BlueStacks App Channels, however, you will need a Facebook account to sign up. The Android App Player will only allow apps and games to be played full screen on a PC; there's no support for windowed-based features yet. Android app makers don't need to make any modifications to their programs in order for them to run on the Android App Player.
BlueStacks has stated in a press release that it has already received interest from PC makers in pre-loading the Android App Player in their PC rigs. While this first version is free it's also limited to adding 26 Android apps in addition to the 10 apps that are pre-loaded with the player. A future "Pro" version of the Android App Player will allow users to run an unlimited number of apps via the player.
One of the constant complaints about Windows 8 is the lack of applications in the Store from big name brands such as Twitter and Facebook. If you happen to be deeply invested in the Android ecosystem and want to bring some of those apps to Windows 8, BlueStacks is ready and waiting for you to download their software.
BlueStacks has been working on its Windows 8 product for quite some time and is finally ready to kick the goods out into the open with the announcement that BlueStacks is out of beta and is optimized for the Surface Pro.
When running on the Pro, you will be able to take advantage of the systems built in sensors and be able to go full-screen as well.
The service will fill a niche gap for users who require certain Android applications on their Windows 8 device. Although, we do suspect that as the install base of Windows 8 becomes larger, services like BlueStack and their value proposition will quickly decline.
